  1. hey guys - absolute photography newbie here. i just got a 400d w/ kit lens, went through the manual... what next? can anyone point me in the direction of any good online tutorials for beginners. i don't mind investing in books either so any book recommendations would be great also.

    any help appreciated! :)

  2. I think $100 is good value if you haven't owned a pair before and looking for something ripped up. That's less than half retail I believe and the more staple washes don't go on sale in Australia.

    However, in Australia they are everywhere, so I don’t really wear mine anymore except on the off chance I don’t feel like wearing my raw jeans. Quality isn't what it used to be, but tsubi has never been known for quality in any case.

    For $100 though I reckon try them out.

  3. standard kickflips.... the whole reason i quit skating 8 years ago. bought a skateboard a few weeks ago determined to do kickflips and pop shuvits. have learnt 180s and bs shuvits. still trying to get the board to flip properly underneath me. i give it another 6 months :)

  4. fixed it for you.

    i think kubrick has the best over all collection out of any of the directors you mentioned.

    thanks... to be quite honest i haven't even seen most of his movies and only started getting into them a few years ago. the ones i have seen though i've loved them all.

  5. i just ordered a pair of 21cm bruts from luisaviaroma, and they are made in japan. as you can see on the website, there are two raw 19cm model: the nostalgy, and the brut. the nostalgy, as mentioned in the thread by minya, refers to the italian 19cm model, whereas the brut is the japanese model.

    hey jooky, got any pics of these on by any chance?

  7. i think you're on to something. asians shop so much because they believe it will bring them closer to the american ideal. in esssence, we shop because we want to be white, or black!

  8. why do asians have a predisposition towards hype beasting and lining up for clothes and sneakers.

    please explain.

    is it because reselling is in the blood, or perhaps because of the materialism of asians cultures?

    btw im asian, am not a reseller or hypebeast and have never lined up for clothes sneakers. im just curious.
